Summary
I’m joined by Morgan Raum, Lox Club’s Head of Membership and creator of @tooomuchfoood. Morgan opens up about taking it slow at the start of a new relationship, the pressure of being their +1 at weddings in the early stages of dating, and the blindsided breakup she recently went through. We chat about the biggest mistakes people are making on dating apps and how to improve your profile. Finally, we discuss Morgan’s viral “I’m Single” series where she became known as the girl who walked around parks, concerts, and parties with a sign on her phone that said “I’m Single” as a method of meeting people IRL.
